Brad Lander Wins NY-10 Democratic Primary, Ousting Incumbent Dan Goldman
A general-election contest between Lander and the Republican nominee will test whether his platform of abolishing ICE and confronting executive power reflects broader district sentiment in a seat...
Brad Lander, former New York City comptroller, defeated incumbent Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) in the Democratic primary for New York's 10th Congressional District, according to results reported by the Washington Examiner on June 24, 2026. The 10th Congressional District covers portions of lower Manhattan and Brooklyn. Goldman had held the seat since winning the 2022 primary. In his victory speech, Lander called for the abolition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), pledged opposition to President Donald Trump, and framed his campaign around economic inequality and what he described as the power of billionaires in American politics, according to the Washington Examiner's account of his remarks. No specific legislative proposals, cost estimates, or co-sponsorship commitments were detailed in available public records as of publication. Lander's policy positions on ICE abolition place him in alignment with a subset of House Democrats who have introduced or co-signed related legislation in prior Congresses; the specific bills and their sponsor lists are searchable in the Congressional Record at congress.gov. Goldman, the incumbent, had not yet issued a public statement accessible in verified news records at time of publication. What remains unknown is the final certified vote margin between Lander and Goldman, which will be available from the New York City Board of Elections upon official canvass completion. The identity, party affiliation, and campaign finance disclosures of the Republican or third-party nominee for the general election in NY-10 are also not yet confirmed in public FEC filings as of June 24, 2026.
